Chapter 299
Inside the Dragon Well, the water flowed with a gurgling sound, emitting a dense, misty aura.
To the Dragon race, it is a well; to the human race, however, this is merely a pond.
There is no need for the Origin Analysis Art to purify it; the spiritual energy is completely visible and can be absorbed automatically!
"This feels so good!"
Zhao Xing absorbed it greedily.
Happiness had arrived too suddenly!
He had assumed that even if there were spiritual energy in the Dragon Well, it wouldn't be too exaggerated, but now it exceeded his imagination.
"The spiritual spring water is three or four meters deep. This might be just a tiny bit for the Dragon race, but for me, it is truly a massive amount."
"Profound Yellow Origin Analysis!"
Zhao Xing first sucked away the spiritual energy in the air.
Afterward, he jumped into the spring water himself and quickly cast the Profound Yellow Origin Analysis Art to extract all the spiritual energy.
"Gurgle~"
The colorful spiritual energy flew into the Pure Origin Space, and the surrounding water level dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, the water level neared exhaustion, becoming ordinary water.
"Let me see if this soil is of any use."
Zhao Xing dug three feet deep again, attempting to bring the soil in as well. However, the attempt failed.
"Perhaps it counts as decent survival soil in the outside world, but it hasn't reached the level where it can be brought into the Pure Origin soil."
Pure Origin soil is fundamentally different from soil in reality, and the requirements for bringing it in are quite harsh.
"I can't waste it either!"
Zhao Xing unfolded the Pure Origin projection and released all the remaining plants, rooting them in the bottom of the Dragon Well.
"For plant troops with low growth caps, I won't let them absorb spiritual energy; absorbing it would be a complete waste!"
After the excitement, his rationality returned, and Zhao Xing immediately thought about how to allocate the spiritual energy reasonably.
"Using the Profound Yellow Origin Analysis Art to suck this Dragon Well dry, the rich spiritual energy that was originally nearly liquefied has been purified by me and thoroughly liquefied."
Zhao Xing looked in front of him at the seven clusters of spiritual liquid floating above the Pure Origin soil; the one with the azure appearance was the liquefied water spiritual energy.
The water-element spiritual liquid was also the most abundant. After liquefaction, it had substance. Zhao Xing calculated that there was over a thousand kilograms of water-element spiritual liquid!
"One ton doesn't seem like much, but this is spiritual liquid! The Floating Vine just absorbed about a hundred catties and broke through two realms directly, reaching the early stage of the ninth rank."
"It should be able to reach the late stage of the ninth rank in the end!"
Growth by absorbing spiritual energy also takes time to manifest. The amount the Floating Vine just absorbed is enough to reach the late stage of the ninth rank. The reason Zhao Xing didn't let it continue absorbing was mainly for fear of overfeeding it to death.
It's not that the more spiritual energy given, the better; it still needs to be allocated reasonably to avoid waste or stunted growth.
"The other six clusters are gold, wood, fire, earth, wind, and thunder, respectively."
"The quantity is much less compared to the water-element spiritual energy."
"Earth-element spiritual liquid, 312. kilograms extracted. Wood-element spiritual liquid, 52. kilograms extracted."
"Gold-element spiritual liquid, 10. kilograms extracted."
"Wind-element spiritual liquid, 8. kilograms extracted."
"Thunder-element spiritual liquid, 5. kilograms extracted."
"Fire-element spiritual liquid, only 2. kilograms."
Zhao Xing calculated it down to the decimal. Mainly, even the fractions of this stuff are very precious outside! As for why the spiritual energy in the Dragon Well possessed the five elements, it was mainly due to the formation of the Dragon Well.
"Although there is a lot of spiritual energy, I have to spend it sparingly. Trash troops don't deserve to absorb spiritual energy."
"The rest can be pulled out."
With a thought, Zhao Xing completely rooted the plants of the Pure Origin soil into the soil of reality, leaving only the Floating Vine and the mysterious Void Seed.
The batch of plants he had screened at the time was only for transition. If he let them absorb spiritual energy, it would be no different from waste.
Even rooting them in the soil wouldn't work; as long as they remained, there was a possibility they would siphon off this spiritual energy.
"After pulling them all out, there are only four directions worth my investment of spiritual energy."
Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"First is the Pure Origin soil itself; its evolution can evolve many characteristics, such as Earth's Thickness, Earth's Leyline, Earth's Spiritual Vein, and the characteristics of the other five elements also need to be cultivated with spiritual energy."
"Second is the Floating Vine. Judging by that Floating Vine from Liu Tianning's past life, it is completely worth the investment."
"Third is the Void Seed. The Void Seed now only has a layer of pale green on its surface, and it is also a big consumer of spiritual energy."
"Fourth is solving the drawbacks of the Straw Man Method. Soul, soul, spiritual energy can cause a qualitative transformation of the life soul. The Straw Man Method, which had no drawbacks in the era of spiritual energy recovery in the past life, might just be lacking spiritual energy."
"Hiss, thinking about it this way, it's not enough."
Zhao Xing was also the type who wanted more the more he got.
If spiritual energy is compared to points for adding stats, there are too many damn things to add points to now!
"Allocate according to priority. Now that the Void Seed has begun to sprout, it must be arranged, otherwise, this thing is very likely to die on me."
Zhao Xing divided one drop of each of the five elements, wind, and thunder spiritual liquids and dripped them one by one onto the surface of the Void Seed.
He checked which one had the best effect on it, only to find that the effect of any spiritual liquid was the same.
"Oh? It doesn't refuse anything!"
Now that there was the most water-element spiritual liquid, Zhao Xing immediately watered the Void Seed drop by drop.
Because it didn't need soil to survive, Zhao Xing didn't bury it in the Pure Origin soil. As more water-element spiritual liquid dripped in, the greenness on the surface became heavier and heavier.
Wisps of magical patterns spread across its surface, and the seed slowly grew from its original fist size.
"It has already eaten a hundred kilograms. The Floating Vine reached the ninth rank after a hundred kilograms, and you still won't sprout?"
"Gestation is truly difficult."
The Void Seed starts at the level of a peerless treasure!
Because in the current world, including the Shangluo Academy, there is no Void Seed, and there are even very few records of it. Otherwise, how could it be called peerless?
Zhao Xing was very happy at first; after all, the harder it is to gestate, the stronger the plant troop will be. But gradually, he couldn't be happy anymore.
"No, isn't your level too high?!"
"It has already eaten four hundred kilograms of spiritual liquid, why is it only getting bigger?"
Zhao Xing looked at the seed in front of him. It was originally only fist-sized, but now it was twice as big as his head. The original green color had disappeared, replaced by interlaced gray-black and pale purple.
There were even faint specks of starlight on the surface, looking just like a starry sky.
"If the spiritual energy is gone, I'll find more. I want to see what kind of sacred being you are!" Zhao Xing gritted his teeth and continued to let it absorb.
It ate until it reached eight hundred kilograms of water-element spiritual liquid.
Hum~
It finally changed!
A leaf sprouted from the surface. The leaf also had a black base, the edges of the leaf were pale purple, and starlight appeared on the veins above.
"Boom~"
When this leaf appeared, the surrounding space was vaguely cut and twisted.
"Hiss!"
Zhao Xing was stunned!
Just a tender leaf of a seedling, and it cuts space and twists the heavenly rules of the Dragon Court?
"Damn, this shouldn't be something from the Profound Yellow World at all. Even in the universe version, it's a rare item!"
"How did Dali get it? Could it have flown from beyond the heavens?" Zhao Xing was extremely excited.
Because he knew what category of plant the Void Seed in front of him was.
"The classic plant troop of the universe version's Si Nong, the vine-type Void Seed, the Cloud-Touching Vine!"
Zhao Xing looked at the leaf lying on the surface of the seed shell and couldn't help but show a trace of helplessness.
"It really is a surprise."
The joy is that even in the universe version, it is very difficult to obtain. The surprise is that it is too strong. At this stage, the difficulty coefficient for Zhao Xing to raise it to the growth stage is too high.
"Boss, you rest in my space first. I'll come to support you when I have money."
Zhao Xing helplessly moved the Void Seed to the very center of the Pure Origin soil to float.
Afterward, he surrounded it with seven types of spiritual energy, dividing a wisp of spiritual energy every hour to keep it alive.
After watching it reluctantly for a while, Zhao Xing continued the allocation of spiritual energy.
"The Floating Vine won't eat for now. Let's try to solve the drawbacks of the Myriad Law Straw Man first."
With the Cloud-Touching Vine, this great god, Zhao Xing now looks at other vine-type plant troops as mere sacrificial offerings.
"Snap!"
Zhao Xing extracted one drop of each of the five-element spiritual liquids and dripped them into his Divine Court acupoint.
The spiritual energy entered his body and was directly absorbed into his sea of consciousness.
Although it was a drop, it became a wisp when it appeared in the sea of consciousness.
Zhao Xing kept extracting and dripping spiritual energy, but found that apart from being a bit clearer, there was no other feeling.
"I must research the detailed process to make it effective."
"Otherwise, it will eventually be a hidden danger."
"Split!"
The Seven-Star Life Soul split off one of its parts.
"From now on, whether fighting or in daily life, the one-star life soul will not touch spiritual energy and will not be used for other purposes, purely used to observe the changes of the six-star main soul under spiritual energy."
"Conversely, the six-star main soul must also split off a portion of its energy to observe the soul power fluctuations, emotional changes, and Dao enlightenment feedback of the one-star main soul in a state without spiritual energy... recording the differences between the two."
"The process of research is also a kind of cultivation. If it can really be effective, then I can solve the problem."
Spiritual energy, the Shangluo Academy definitely has it, so there is no shortage of this 'medicinal ingredient'.
The point is the method of using the medicine.
Zhao Xing guessed that the reason Xu Xing's main body hadn't gone out for many years was that he had been staying in the spiritual energy land of the Shangluo Academy to recuperate.
He might not know how to solve it, but just staying in the spiritual energy land could achieve suppression.
To solve it, Zhao Xing guessed that the complete cultivation method of the Derivation God Art was still missing, as well as the role spiritual energy played in it.
Combined, that is the true way to solve it.
Making it so that cultivating this method in the era of vital energy won't lead to qi deviation or madness.
"This is a long-term job. I have to save a portion of the spiritual liquid for backup."
Even so, the remaining spiritual liquid still caused earth-shaking changes in Zhao Xing.
Inside the Pure Origin Space, the land had expanded to an astonishing degree.
"The radius just exceeded ten thousand meters. This is seventh-level soil!"
With seventh-level soil, the range can truly be called a powerhouse of the Self-Identity School of Si Nong.
If Zhao Xing can make the ratio of the Pure Origin projection reach 1: , then when he summons the Pure Origin projection, with himself as the center, he can cover 10 kilometers in any direction.
At the same time, he can also make plant troops appear at any position within an area of 314 square kilometers.
Of course, in reality, the Pure Origin projection is suppressed by the Profound Yellow World, and it is impossible to achieve a complete 1: projection.
With the improvement of the perception of heavenly rules, it can infinitely approach 1: , but it can never achieve a true 1: .
"However, when my Pure Origin soil range continues to expand, reaching a radius of 100 kilometers, or even 1000 kilometers, 10000 kilometers, that is truly terrifying."
Imagine, Zhao Xing is one thousand kilometers away, and the enemy hasn't even seen his shadow before being surrounded by the plant army!
And this is very different from the long-range attacks of the Engineer School. The Si Nong's Pure Origin projection, accompanied by the appearance of plants, allows the Si Nong to jump and conduct close-range reconnaissance, and its concealment is also stronger than that of the Engineer School's mechanism masters.
"Pure Origin soil upgraded to level seven, possessing seven characteristics."
Zhao Xing's mind sank, overlooking the land below.
"Earth's Thickness has completed its advancement, reaching the level of 【Earth's Leyline】."
"Each characteristic has nine small ranks, and Earth's Leyline is now at the fifth rank."
Zhao Xing could already clearly feel that the fifth-rank leyline in the Pure Origin soil was already strong enough.
The standard for leylines in the high-quality farmland of the Great Zhou is the fourth rank.
Even many of the experimental fields of the Twin Academy of the Shangluo Academy are only fifth-rank leylines.
The birth of a leyline in the Pure Origin Space also has a different meaning. It is equivalent to a person carrying a leyline in their body!
"The generation of a leyline is one of the prerequisites for evolving an internal world."
"Later, when I cast spells of the Earth-Benefit School, I will also receive its bonus."
"A complete Si Nong is truly indispensable in any school."
Zhao Xing looked at the mound of earth in the center of the soil and couldn't help but sigh.
A region in the center was already five meters above the water level!
"The Self-Identity School Si Nong of the Shangluo Academy whose Pure Origin soil has given birth to an earth-element leyline must be at least first-rank. The second-rank of the Shenhua Academy might have very individual cases, after all, they have to inherit ancient wood."
"The second characteristic is the Water Gestation characteristic created by water-element spiritual liquid. It can accelerate the growth of plant troops."
"Water-element spiritual energy has already allowed me to skip the initial stage of this water-element characteristic and reach the second stage, 【Spiritual Energy Spring】."
Zhao Xing came to another place, where a small water pit with a radius of ten meters had been created. It stored water-element spiritual liquid, and wisps of spiritual energy were rising above it.
With it as a foundation, it can radiate the entire Pure Origin soil.
In the future, Zhao Xing won't need to cultivate plant troops one by one, and he can also take spiritual energy from here, solving the storage problem.
Before it appeared, he had to spend energy to constantly restrain the spiritual energy.
"The remaining characteristics: Wind's Agility, Wood's Vitality, Fire's Warmth, Gold's Firmness, Thunder's Destruction."
"All are at the seventh or eighth level of the first stage, still a distance away from advancement."
Zhao Xing put away the Pure Origin projection and then soared into the sky.
"The Nine-Star Fire Prison is only a part of the Dragon Prison. I can continue to look for more. The spiritual energy here is even more than I imagined."
"Next, I want to find spiritual energy while solving the problem of the Myriad Law Straw Man, and by the way, verify my previous guess." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"If the spiritual energy found later is still more than I imagined, I can preliminarily verify my guess."
"There are still some places where I have to find a way to get in. I must hurry."
Zhao Xing continued to fly in the Nine-Star Fire Prison.
Counting from the time he entered the Dragon Well, it was already three months later when he came out.
After all, absorbing so much spiritual energy and purifying it also requires a lot of time. Zhao Xing was looking for spiritual energy in the Nine-Star Fire Prison, but the outside world was in an uproar.
The Dragon King Yin Xiu woke up from his slumber and intervened in the encirclement of the Great Zhou by the Southern Barbarians, Eastern Ying, Water Tribe, and sects, which was simply unbelievable.
The final result was even more explosive:
The Great Snake Kingdom's Dragon King Yichuan died, and the two Dragon Kings of the Southern Barbarians, Tuoyan and Pangbeilai, lost their Dragon King positions and fled in panic, their life or death unknown!
When the news spread, it was simply unbelievable.
"It was just said that the Great Zhou's White Dragon King was besieged, why did the situation suddenly reverse?"
"Heavens, Yichuan was actually killed! Pangbeilai and Tuoyan lost their Dragon King positions!"
"Did I hear wrong? Can the Dragon King position be stripped away?"
"It's absolutely true! The alliance had already issued a warning, but unfortunately, no one believed it."
"Who issued it?"
"The two Heavenly Venerables of the White Bone Sect!"
"Damn, why was it said so lightly!"
"..."
At this time, the two Heavenly Venerables of the White Bone Sect were still refining the skull of the Great Dragon King at the Ascending Dragon Platform.
When they heard the news, they couldn't help but drop their jaws.
"Red Bone, did we... play too big?" Heavenly Venerable Purple Bone looked troubled.
Heavenly Venerable Red Bone also swallowed his saliva.
They never expected that the group from the Great Zhou would actually obtain such great authority from the Dragon Emperor's Ascending Dragon Platform!
Not only did they summon Yin Xiu and kill the Wind Dragon King, but they could also shake the Dragon King's title!
"The Dragon King is the foundation for us to walk in the Dragon Court. If there is no such position, it is inconvenient to explore many places!"
"This matter... is too big." Heavenly Venerable Purple Bone also became nervous. "If that person can achieve this level, who else can stop the Great Zhou from dominating the Dragon Court?"
"Now is not the time to think about this. No matter how powerful the Great Zhou is, their quota is limited after all. The Dragon Court ancient land is so big that they can't finish exploring it. It's impossible to get all the benefits."
"The problem we need to consider now is how to explain it to the Royal Court." Heavenly Venerable Red Bone said.
They did issue a warning, but the warning was too light.
Now that three Dragon Kings are dead and two have fled, someone must take the blame.
The problem is that this pot is too big, and their White Bone Sect can't carry it!
"What else can we do? We can only hide first!" Heavenly Venerable Purple Bone gritted his teeth and said: "In any case, we have the act of issuing a warning."
"Who could have imagined that the Great Zhou possessed such power? Bai Yunwu hasn't even died yet and will come out of the Nine-Star Fire Prison soon. This is entirely Pangbeilai's misjudgment!"
Hiding is a good choice. Anyway, we can go on an adventure first, take the benefits, and the subsequent bickering is nothing more than the transfer of interests.
"Then what about it?" Heavenly Venerable Red Bone pointed to the Great Dragon King's skull.
"We can only take it away first and find a place to refine it slowly."
"For now, this is the only way. I hope we can refine it successfully. If we can find some more treasures to enhance our right to speak, perhaps not only will there be no disaster, but we can go further."
…………
Guting Kingdom, Royal City, Xila Prefecture.
Bai Yunwu took people to hunt down the external forces, while Long Xiao and Bai Yang, King Shenluo, Ye Yukong, Tong Jin, and Ji Mengjun returned to the Royal City first.
Escorting the divine artifact back is, of course, more important.
"My lord, a letter from Zhao Xing."
Long Xiao handed the letter to Ji Si.
"Oh? Where is he?" Ji Si asked.
"He went to the Nine-Star Fire Prison and didn't come out." Long Xiao said, "Zhao Xing said he wanted to continue exploring the Dragon Prison and asked my lord not to worry."
Ji Si frowned, but thinking of Yin Xiu still guarding the entrance of the Nine-Star Fire Prison, plus the power of the Dragon Emperor's decree, his frown relaxed.
After opening the letter and reading it, Ji Si put it away calmly.
Then he looked toward the back: "King Shenluo, thank you for your hard work in driving the dragon boat to the back."
"No problem."
After thinking for a while, Ji Si said to Long Xiao: "You stay here and rest for a while."
"Okay."
Ji Si discussed with Ji Mengjun and Tong Jin in the side hall for a while. Afterward, the two left quickly.
After arranging everything, Ji Si entered the Secret Chamber of Heavenly Secrets.
Through the Cloud Script Time Sign, he wrote a letter to King Tianyan in the outside world.
"The siege of Bai Yunwu has been lifted, and the Great Snake Kingdom's Wind Dragon King Yichuan has been killed by Yin Xiu."
"Pangbeilai and Tuoyan have lost their Dragon King positions..."
"Everything happened too fast. Please inform the military department of this intelligence quickly, brother, to prevent the external forces from jumping over the wall in desperation and causing chaos..."
Juzi Palace, Hall of Heavenly Secrets.
"What?!" King Tianyan was stunned, "The effect is actually so good?"
Then came ecstasy: "If this is really the case, then our dynasty will occupy an absolute dominant position for a long time!"
The birth of a Dragon King requires going through many tests, and the human lifespan is not long.
Just completing these tests takes three to five hundred years.
It is foreseeable that in the next three to four hundred years, it will be difficult for external forces to obtain Dragon King authority again.
Even if they obtain it, it doesn't matter. No matter how many there are, it's not enough for Zhao Xing to strip away, unless they can find a new way to deal with it.
Ji Si's information continued to be transmitted, but this time it was transmitted to Emperor Jing.
"Zhao Xing has already entered the Nine-Star Fire Prison to explore, and he left a letter."
"According to him, there are two places in the Dragon Court ancient land that can ignore his decree: one is the Sea of Sin, and the other is the Heavenly Abyss."
"In addition, there are certain existences among the Dragon race's own Dragon Kings that he cannot mobilize, and it is impossible to easily take back the authority. It is possible to kill them hard, but he has not fully mastered the power of the code and needs to take it slowly..."
The Dragon Emperor's Code has been bound to his soul, and before he dies, the code cannot be handed over to others to use."
"Also, Zhao Xing has newly obtained two divine artifacts: one is the Infinite Sword Embryo, and the other is the Giant God Soldier. Both divine artifacts are treasure-level and were not in the previous predictions, which shows Zhao Xing's loyalty..."
"Ji Mengjun and Tong Jin have already secretly carried out His Majesty's mission with the Heavenly Guard Commander..."
After a pause, Ji Si wrote about another matter:
"My younger brother luckily exchanged for a treasure-level divine artifact from Dragon King Yin Xiu's treasury."
"I have gained a lot recently. It seems that it can be used as a carrier for the power of the Life Official, and perhaps it can replace the Cloud Script Time Sign. I hope His Majesty will allow my younger brother to further research this divine artifact..."
……
Shuangchen Territory, the light of the teleportation array flashed, and the figures of Ji Mengjun and Tong Jin appeared.
The two took out the Star Conch and said a few words to it.
Then they quickly headed toward the Lord's Mansion of Shuangchen Territory.
In the Lord's Mansion, the first-rank martial artist Luo Guanxiu was restless.
As a powerhouse in the Life Palace Realm, he has a certain perception of his own destiny.
He always felt that this trip to the Dragon Court was full of dangers, and he was very likely to fall here.
That is why when Bai Yunwu was besieged, he did not go to support.
Too dangerous!
Three Dragon King-level figures were deploying troops and generals, and so many Lord-level dragons were besieging, even a first-rank could easily fall.
So he used his original mission as an excuse to decline and refused the transfer order from the royal clan twice.
The third time, he waited for Ji Mengjun and Tong Jin.
"Lord Ji." Luo Guanxiu responded through the Star Conch, "I have an important task. I have discovered a secret treasure land and am preparing to explore it. If successful, I might bring back a treasure material for our dynasty. Please forgive me for not being able to get away."
Ji Mengjun and Tong Jin didn't say much and headed straight for the City Lord's Mansion.
When Luo Guanxiu saw Ji Mengjun and Tong Jin descending, his heart skipped a beat.
But he still didn't think that these two were here to kill him, so he greeted them with a smile, intending to fool them.
Result—
"Huh?" Luo Guanxiu flew forward a thousand meters, but suddenly shivered.
Looking back, he found that he didn't know when his soul had left his body, and his physical body was still standing on the steps.
"Soul extraction? She is here to kill me!"
Luo Guanxiu was furious and immediately wanted to return to his physical body.
However, Ji Mengjun had already started dancing the "Imperial Dance".
Her limbs didn't have any movement, but the life soul in her sea of consciousness danced along with it.
Imperial Dance, also known as the Dance of the Soul! Among the six small dances, its power ranks first!
Derived from the ultimate method among the six great dances, Ji Mengjun now possesses top-level perfect soul dance skills!
Secret techniques targeting the soul all have one characteristic: they can ignore the rules of the Dao field to a certain extent.
Luo Guanxiu's soul did not have a substantial reaction the moment he realized it.
Because his soul followed Ji Mengjun's body and began to dance.
"Why! Why do you want to kill me!" Luo Guanxiu roared.
But his life soul couldn't break free at all.
In the state of soul extraction and losing the initiative, Ji Mengjun could control him for at least ten breaths!
Such ample time was enough for Tong Jin to blow up his physical body!
"Bang!"
Neither Ji Mengjun nor Tong Jin responded, or rather, Luo Guanxiu's physical body being blown up was the best response.
"I was appointed by His Majesty..."
Luo Guanxiu still wanted to say something, but suddenly realized something.
A trace of a miserable smile appeared on his face.
Understood, everything was understood.
"Bang!"
At the last moment of his life, Luo Guanxiu fell into complete nothingness with infinite regret.
"Hum~"
When Luo Guanxiu's life soul and physical body both disappeared, a ray of light lit up on the imperial decree in Ji Mengjun's sleeve.
Return the luck to the dynasty!
The baptism of the national luck that Luo Guanxiu had previously obtained from the Great Zhou was all recovered.
Tong Jin and Ji Mengjun stood silently.
Half an hour later, a group of powerhouses wearing golden armor, holding long spears, and wearing full-coverage helmets flew out from all over the Lord's Mansion.
"Reporting to my lord, everything has been handled."
"Let's go."
Efficient! Fast!
In the process of hunting down the external demons in the Great Zhou, there were such powerhouses, few in number but highly efficient, who suddenly appeared in various places.
Mou Dingbang, Lan Zhongji, Luo Guanxiu... many powerhouses disappeared in this chaos, and they would appear on the official list of those killed in action.
No one would know the details of their deaths.
Even the executors would accept the Forget-Sorrow Method of the Ritual Cultivators afterward.
The families they belonged to would also gradually decline with the death of the first-rank powerhouse.
…………
Time passed, and in the Nine-Star Fire Prison, Zhao Xing had been flying for three days.
In the Nine-Star Fire Prison, apart from eternal darkness, there were only fire chains occasionally shuttling through the darkness.
The rule chains would lock any life that entered here.
Zhao Xing could only judge the direction by the movement of the fire chains.
"It's really deadly. Being locked in this kind of place, it's extremely quiet, and having to be locked by the fire rule chains is simply a kind of torture."
"If it weren't for spiritual energy, I really wouldn't want to come to this ghost place." Zhao Xing muttered.
He flew for a long time again before finding another Dragon Well location.
It was also a drifting micro-land, exactly the same as the previous one.
"It took a month, it should be April of the fourth year of Dazhi now." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
Whether the Dragon race's place is big is secondary, the main thing is that the efficiency of advancing in the Dragon Prison is not high, and one can only judge by the rule fire.
Being able to recognize it is all because of the transformation, plus the amplification effect of the Dragon Emperor's Code.
Of course, it is also because the Dragon Wells are distributed far apart.
According to the scale of the first one, one Dragon Well can maintain the minimum life characteristics of many Dragon race criminals.
Imprisonment is not for enjoyment, of course, as long as you don't die, it's fine.
"Swish swish~"
Zhao Xing pulled open the chains on the Dragon Well. The difficulty of pulling the chains this time also became a bit greater.
He was completely in the form of a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, then used his claws to wrap around it, carrying it on his shoulders, to be able to drag the huge chains.
"Hum~"
When the chains were pulled open, the second Dragon Well erupted just like the first one, only the force was not as great.
"Transform!"
Zhao Xing transformed back into human form, and then quickly cast the Pure Origin soil.
"I'll suck!"
Exactly the same as before, Zhao Xing first captured the spiritual energy that escaped, trying not to waste a single bit.
Afterward, he jumped into the Dragon Well and activated the Profound Yellow Origin Analysis Art to purify it.
"Clatter~ clatter~"
The spiritual energy turned into liquid, dripped into the soil, and was stored by Zhao Xing.
Because the attributes of the spiritual energy were different, Zhao Xing, in order not to make his Pure Origin soil develop too abnormally, first purified and stored the spiritual energy.
"The five elements emphasize balance. If my leyline is too strong and the other attributes are too weak, it's like a bucket with only one board growing infinitely, and it will even interfere with the other attributes."
"This time I obtained another 1 ton of water-element spiritual liquid, 258. 2 kilograms of earth-element spiritual liquid, and the other attributes are all in the tens, adding up to less than one hundred kilograms."
"Store it first."
Zhao Xing didn't absorb it immediately. According to this exploration efficiency, he still had to calculate whether the time was enough.
…………
Time passed, and since Zhao Xing entered the Nine-Star Fire Prison, two years and four months had passed.
At the entrance of the Nine-Star Fire Prison plain, Dragon King Yin Xiu opened his eyes again.
Seeing that Zhao Xing didn't come out, he followed the order Zhao Xing had given at the beginning, flew away from the Fire Prison plain, and returned to the Guting Royal City.
Yin Xiu could still sense the position of the Dragon Emperor's Code, and it was constantly moving.
Obviously, the great successor of the Dragon Emperor had his own important matters.
As the first Dragon King under the successor of the Dragon Emperor, he only needed to return to the Guting Royal City, reorganize the Dragon Army, and wait for the summons of his King.
Yin Xiu, who returned to the Guting Royal City, did not choose to sleep, and the Guting Kingdom also opened the era of dual-king rule.
The two brothers, Dragon King Yin Xiu and Yin Li, began to frequently summon the Lords and City Lords of the Dragon race.
The fire in the Fuming Palace burned day and night, and a large number of heavy Dragon troops were manufactured.
Dragon Turtles carried one Dragon Crystal after another, shuttling back and forth across the kingdom, and dragon boats transported a large amount of materials.
Even many humans in the kingdom received military equipment tasks from the Dragon race.
"What's the situation? Why are they all mining tasks recently?" The brother and sister, Lu Manman and Lu Xiuyuan, came out of the Lord's Mansion with gray faces.
They had just finished a mining task, and another one came.
Or they were sent to the sea to salvage materials, or to dangerous places to pick fruits.
In short, they were all coolie jobs, with very little technical content.
"We're going to war, the Dragon race of the Guting Kingdom is going to expand its military equipment!" Lu Manman said.
"It's too ruthless, who exactly is the Great Dragon King 'Zhao' in our dynasty? The decrees of Yin Xiu and Yin Li must carry this name. This is too cool!"
"You ask me, who do I ask?"
…………
"Dong! Dang!"
"Ding! Dang!"
Guting Royal City, Fuming Divine Temple.
Cao Qianyue was hammering the parts of a weapon with great effort, and a huge furnace was set up on a magma lake nearby.
He was hammering nearby, while not far away, a little loli with double buns was sitting on an iron frame, dangling her fair and tender legs.
"Dunlie, how long are you going to hammer? This is too boring." Li Muwan's head poked out from behind a huge dragon fruit, with fruit crumbs on her lips.
"I've almost finished eating three Dragon Abyss Pears, and you're still not done."
"Almost, almost!" Cao Qianyue smiled honestly, "When I finish hammering, we can go eat something."
"Good, good, good." Li Muwan jumped down, beaming with joy: "What are we eating today?"
"Eighth-rank Fire Dragon Axe fragments, what do you say?"
"? You can get this?" Li Muwan's eyes lit up.
"I definitely can't do it alone, but I am the personal guard of the Marquis of Divine Might!" Cao Qianyue touched his bald head.
"You said, is the Great Dragon King 'Zhao' the Marquis of Divine Might, Zhao Xing?" Li Muwan asked curiously.
"Umm, umm, woo~" Cao Qianyue covered his mouth and shook his head, "I don't know."
"I really don't know." Cao Qianyue explained, "Don't ask anymore. My treatment is much better now. In another year or two, I might be able to reach the third rank. If you ask me again and it's gone, we won't be able to eat so many delicious things."
"I won't ask anymore!" Li Muwan said with a smile, "When you see the Marquis of Divine Might another day, tell him too, and see if you can transfer me over."
"Deal." Cao Qianyue smiled, "I've mentioned it long ago. Your Gluttonous Food Method is even higher than mine, the Marquis will definitely like it."
...... …
The third year of entering the Nine-Star Fire Prison.
Above a dark red land, a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon overlooked the bottom.
"Three years, I have walked to the depths of the Dragon Prison."
"Unexpectedly, there is still a living Great Dragon King here."
Zhao Xing overlooked, and on the dark red land below, a black dragon with an extremely huge body was coiled!
It occupied almost three-fifths of the land, and the range it could move was very small. The huge dragon head and dragon scales, even when sleeping, flashed with dangerous light.
The body size was at least over a hundred kilometers. Zhao Xing could feel the terrifying aura naturally emitted by the black dragon from far away.
"He is in a sleeping state now, but he is still alive." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
"Under his body, there must still be spiritual energy, otherwise he wouldn't be able to live so long."
Unlike other places, the black Great Dragon King imprisoned here also had a stone tablet next to him recording his name, as well as the time and reason for his imprisonment.
"Great Dragon King 'Zhi', because he violated the decree and returned to the Dragon Court without authorization, was imprisoned by the Dragon Emperor 'Jie' in the Fifth Dragon Era, for a period of one era."
"Dragon Era, a million years of time. The Fifth Dragon Era should be the last generation of Dragon Emperor Jie. At that time, it should have been the time when the Dragon Court and the Heavenly Abyss Demon race were at war."
"This crime is equivalent to a frontier general returning to the capital without a transfer order."
"Imprisoned for a million years, I'm afraid it's more than that." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
After all, later the Dragon Emperor died, and no one would let 'Zhi' out.
"It seems my idea is correct." Zhao Xing stared quietly at the stone tablet, repeatedly confirming that this Great Dragon King was called 'Zhi', and his heart was surging.
"I have entered the Nine-Star Fire Prison many times in my past life, and what I saw was the corpse of the Great Dragon King 'Zhi'."
"He should have died originally, but now he is alive and well, just sleeping, and it looks like he can continue to sleep."
"Why can he still live? Naturally, it's the spiritual spring extending his life."
"In this life, the total amount of spiritual energy is more than I imagined. This is certain, or rather, the total amount of spiritual energy in the Profound Yellow World remains unchanged, but because consumption has slowed down, a lot has been left over."
Zhao Xing's eyes flashed with thought.
"The biggest reason for this situation is... 'players'!"
"The biggest difference between this life and my past life is that there are no players."
"If the mechanism of players dying and resurrecting is a kind of heavenly rule that requires consuming a large amount of spiritual energy to complete."
"Without players, without a resurrection mechanism, more spiritual energy will be left over."
"Judging from the Dragon Wells I dug in these three years, a lot of spiritual energy is left, even exceeding my maximum expectation by two or three times."
"Then, will the small-scale spiritual energy recovery brought about by the vital energy tide in the Wu Di era become even greater?"
Zhao Xing fell into deep thought.
This relates to his subsequent plans, he cannot not think about it.
"If, if... could I complete the ascension in the Wu Di era?"
"That rain of spiritual energy recovery... can I make it even bigger?"
"Manual spiritual energy recovery..." Zhao Xing fell into memories, "This was part of the 'Saving the Heavens' plan organized by players at the time."
"If I were to lead and initiate the 'Saving the Heavens' plan, could I complete the manual spiritual energy recovery in the Wu Di era and help the Great Zhou Dynasty ascend?"
Zhao Xing's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but think about this possibility.
"The current verification can only prove that there is more spiritual energy than in the past life. If I guide the spiritual energy recovery, this might not be enough..."
"Then I also have to squeeze the ascension version and the recovery version into the same period."
"There is less than a thousand years, can it work?" Zhao Xing fell into thought.
"I need more data for reference!"
"After returning this time, I will complete the preliminary calculations in the Jing Di era."
"If everything is really as expected..." Zhao Xing clenched his fists, his eyes shining with brilliance. "Then my plan will have to undergo major changes!"
"Perhaps, I will be able to rewrite the ending of many people, or even the destination of a dynasty!"

Regarding the subsequent plot, there are still some things I want to say, but I'll wait until this volume ends and put it at the beginning of the month.
